Get tired of coming in from the mountains every year Find some place to set up shop around here Spread out a little, circulate
A log that floats down river Will surely take on weight
Meet some people Make some friends How long 'til we get sent back to the mountains? It all depends
On the hopeful And the cunning And the faithful The well-positioned Filthy but graceful
Get familiar with affairs of state Foretell the future Get a pretty good success rate Notch some wins, take some losses
Be nice to the guys who wear necklaces with crosses They will stab you in the back You gotta turn the other cheek You gotta learn to love Jesus, so to speak
Like the hopeful And the cunning And the faithful The well-positioned Filthy but graceful
Real filthy, think about getting clean Even hear the soldiers talk about it, down at the canteen Little kings keep coming, one another's head Which is exactly how the portends read
Watch with wonder Fail to discern These people never learn How long until the snake devours its tail?
Longer than we think Still it's gotta happen sometime Until then, raise a drink
To the hopeful And the cunning And the faithful The well-positioned Filthy but gracefulTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
